Can I get a Saudi Arabian transit visa if driving from UAE to Jordan by car?

A transit visa is indeed possible (they are issued all the time to commercial vehicle drivers and third country nationals), but recently they have stopped issuing them for non-nationals – and issue them on a case-by-case basis.

By national I mean citizen of the destination country; for example an Egyptian national traveling by road from UAE to Egypt.

You’ll need to have already obtained:

  1. Triptych/CDP for your vehicle.
  2. Visa for Jordan in advance if required. If you are eligible for non-visa entry, you may get a pass – but if you are eligible for visa on arrival you will still have to obtain a visa in advance.
  3. Permanent residency in the UAE OR visa free entry into the UAE; you must be deportable to the UAE.

I must warn you – due to the current political climate, if they see you have visited Iran you may get denied transit through Saudi.
